We like the reusable glass jars this comes in. It’s completely unrefined and thus, it has a very natural flavor to it.
It has less cholesterol than butter when you use it to fry thing sin and we find it the perfect ingredient for coconut chocolate brownies!

365 Everyday Value Organic Coconut Oil
This is from the Whole Foods private label and gives you a very good value for money proposition.

NOW Foods Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
You will find that this cold-pressed and unrefined coconut oil product is really super nutritious.
We also found it to be very kind on the hair though it’s not always as easy to work with as some of the other oils in our tests.
We will definitely be buying this brand again.

Trader Joe’s Organic Virgin Coconut Oil Packets
We don’t think single serving packets are always particularly eco-conscious, but we do recognize the need people have for portability.
If you want something that you can just slip in your bag and take anywhere then you might want to consider these packets.

Nutiva Organic Liquid Coconut Oil
There’s no doubt in our minds that if you want to cook with coconut oil, the easiest way to do it is with a bottle of liquid coconut oil.
Then it pours like olive oil or sesame oil and you can easily make what you want from it.
If you want to add coconut oil to a smoothie or a salad, it really is the only way to go to ensure that you mix it up rather than overwhelming things.
